SDA Issues - William Johnsson, What happened to YOU?

Swept up into the net of the
Omega of the Apostasy
-WHAT-- HAS HAPPENED TO WILLIAM JOHNSSON??... Not only is he associating with the "one project" movement (SDA version of emergent church-ism) but he seems to take seriously that "allah" (meaning Johnsson likely assumes it was from God) told his Muslim Imam friend to become an SDA.....(only God can judge his friends heart)...BUT DO YOU REALLY THINK GOD, OR HIS ANGELS, WOULD APPEAR, OR INDICATE TO BE THE VOICE OF, A PAGAN DEITY?? Come on William......what has happened to YOU?
Well, he's also going to speak at the Spectrum Magazine hosted event, Adventist Forum Conference, Sooooo....There's the 1st clue to what has happened to him.....sad....he also, apparently supports women ordination, since he calls the church "sexist" & then refers to "San Antonio" (where the GC rejected unbiblical women's ordination).
P.S. ...careful with these people who call Jesus "radical"...my experience is that they usually have some emergent ties.....and Jesus shouldn't surprise William.....if he read the Old Testament first, for it tells what was to come in the New Testament.

For there must be also factions among you,
that they that are approved may be made manifest among you.
1 Corinthians 11:19
"When they once accept the bait it seems impossible to break the spell that Satan casts over them, because the enemy works out the science of deception as he worked it out in the heavenly courts.
He uses human agencies to carry on his work with other human beings."
Manuscript Releases vol.11,p.213 E.G.W.

From Spectrum itself:
"William Johnsson, editor of the Adventist Review for more than two decades..... is one of the speakers at the upcoming Adventist Forum conference,...
Question: You are on the list of presenters for this year’s Adventist Forum conference in September. I heard you speak about your imam friend at the Adventist Forum conference in Chattanooga in 2013. How would you say that friendship has affected the way you read the Bible and how you think about Jesus?
Answer: He was more than an imam; he was a Sufi sheikh with a following of millions in the Middle East and Europe. He loved Jesus, believed passionately that Jesus is coming soon and that Allah had instructed him to join with Seventh-day Adventists to tell the Muslim world.
And this week you are in Australia to speak at a One Project gathering. Have you spoken for the One Project before? I believe they are using your book on Jesus as a focus?
My involvement with the One Project is recent. We were invited to speak at the Seattle gathering in February of this year and were enormously blessed. So when the organizers asked us to join them in Oz this August we gave an immediate Yes. 
Your two-volume book Jesus of Nazareth, published last year, is the culmination of a lifelong academic passion for studying Jesus. What would you say is the greatest insight that came to you when researching and writing the book?
Yes, in several respects it is the culmination of a lifetime of reflection, teaching, preaching and writing about Jesus of Nazareth. 
Greatest insight: how radical Jesus was/is! He shocked the people of His day; He shocked/shocks me.
You served as editor of the Adventist Review for a remarkably long 24 years. How do you feel the Adventist church changed during that time?
For better, for worse. Wonderful ministries, wonderful initiatives, creativity, more inclusive, greater involvement with society. Along with more materialistic, more involved in internal politics, still alarmingly racist and sexist. 
What do you see as the most important issues for the Adventist church in the next decade?
Well, check out my new book, due to come out later this year! I'll let you have the title, but no more: Where Are We Headed? Adventism After San Antonio. This isn't a promo — I'm donating all royalty receipts from the work.What advice would you have for Adventist media, like Spectrum?
The Seventh-day Adventist Church needs you to get out the news and to foster constructive dialogue."
